PRECAUTIONSProduct CleaningUse a soft dry cloth for periodic cleaning of the product. For more severe stains, please dampen the cloth with water only. Anything else has the chance of dissolving the paint or damaging the plastic.

TemperatureBe sure the temperature inside the vehicle is between +45 °C (+113 °F) and 0 °C (+32 °F) before turning your unit on.

Moisture CondensationYou may notice the disc playback sound wavering due to condensation. If this happens, remove the disc from the player and wait about an hour for the moisture to evaporate.

MaintenanceIf you have problems, do not attempt to repair the unit yourself. Return it to your Alpine dealer or the nearest Alpine Service Station for servicing.

Installation LocationMake sure the VPA-B222R will not be installed in a location subjected to:

• Direct sun and heat• High humidity and water• Excessive dust• Excessive vibrations

Operation of some of the functions of this unit is very complex. Because of this, it was deemed necessary to place these functions into a special screen. This will restrict operation of these functions to times when the vehicle is parked. This ensures the focus of the driver’s attention will be on the road and not on the VPA-B222R. This has been done for the safety of the driver and passengers.Audio Processor Adjustments cannot be made if the car is moving. The car must be parked and the parking brake must be engaged for the procedure described in the Owner’s Manual to be valid. The warning “CAN’T OPERATE WHILE DRIVING,” will be displayed if any attempts are made to perform these operations while driving.

Performing Time Correction Manually (TCR)Because of the particular conditions inside the vehicle, there can be major differences in the distances between the various speakers and the listening position. It is possible to calculate the optimum correction values and eliminate the time error at the listening position yourself using this function.

1 Check that Defeat mode is off (page 12).

2 Sit in the listening position (the driver’s seat, for example) and measure the distance (in meters) between your head and the various speakers.

3 Calculate the difference in distance between the farthest speaker and the other speakers.

4 Divide the distances calculated for the different speakers by the speed of sound (343 m/s temperature 20 °C).This value is the time correction value for the various speakers.

Concrete examplesCalculating the time correction value for the front left speaker on the diagram below.

In other words, setting the time correction value for the front left speaker to 5.1 (ms) sets a virtual distance matching the distance to the farthest speaker.

5 Press and hold TA/RTN/SETUP for at least 2 seconds.The SETUP screen is displayed.

6 Press the joystick up or down to select AP SETUP, then press the joystick right.The AP SETUP screen is displayed.

8 Press the joystick left or right to select L/R or L+R.

9 Press the joystick up or down to select TCR SETUP, then press the joystick right.

10 Press the joystick up or down to select the desired speaker.

11 Press the joystick left or right to adjust the calculated time correction value (0.00 to 20.00ms). (1step=0.05ms)Time correction value changes continuously by pressing and holding the joystick.

12 Press TA/RTN/SETUP to return to the previous screen.

• When the speaker is set to the “OFF” mode, the TCR for that speaker cannot be set. Refer to “Setting the Speakers” (page 32).

• The adjustment value for FRONT2 (Speakers) which is adjusted in time correction, is also applied to the front speakers in “Setting Bass Focus” (page 36).

• The adjustment (AUTO TCR) cannot be automatically set on this unit.

L = (distance of farthest speaker) – (distance of other speakers)

Conditions:Distance between farthest speaker and listening position:

2.25 m (88-3/4")Distance between front left speaker and listening position:

0.5 m (20")Calculation:

L = 2.25 m (88-3/4") – 0.5 m (20")= 1.75 m (68-3/4")Compensation time = 1.75 ÷ 343 x 1000 = 5.1 (ms)

2.25m

0.5m

5.1ms

The sound is uneven because the distance between the listening position and the different speakers is different.The difference in the distance between the front left and rear right speakers is 1.75 meters (68-3/4").

Time correction eliminates the difference between the time required for the sound from the different speakers to reach the listening position.Setting the time correction of the front left speaker to 5.1 ms makes it possible to coordinate the distance from the listening position to the speaker.

L/R: Different adjustment values can be set for the left and right channels.

L+R: Sets the same adjustment values for the left and right channels.

• When graphic EQ is adjusted, the adjustment for parametric EQ becomes ineffective.

Parametric Equalizer AdjustmentsThe frequency bands of the graphic equalizer are fixed. This makes it very difficult to correct for undesired peaks and dips at specific frequencies. The parametric equalizer’s centre frequency can be tuned to these specific frequencies. Then, the bandwidth (Q) and level are fine-tuned, independently, to make the necessary corrections. The parametric equalizer function is an advanced tool for serious audiophiles.

Installation and ConnectionsBefore installing or connecting the unit, please read the following and pages 4 to 5 of this manual thoroughly for proper use.

WarningMAKE THE CORRECT CONNECTIONSFailure to make the proper connections may result in fire or product damage.

USE ONLY IN CARS WITH A 12 VOLT NEGATIVE GROUND.(Check with your dealer if you are not sure.) Failure to do so may result in fire, etc.

BEFORE WIRING, DISCONNECT THE CABLE FROM THE NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL.Failure to do so may result in electric shock or injury due to electrical shorts.

DO NOT ALLOW CABLES TO BECOME ENTANGLED IN SURROUNDING OBJECTS.Arrange wiring and cables in compliance with the manual to prevent obstructions when driving. Cables or wiring that obstruct or hang up on places such as the steering wheel, gear lever, brake pedals, etc. can be extremely hazardous.

DO NOT SPLICE INTO ELECTRICAL CABLES.Never cut away cable insulation to supply power to other equipment. Doing so will exceed the current carrying capacity of the wire and result in fire or electric shock.

DO NOT DAMAGE PIPE OR WIRING WHEN DRILLING HOLES.When drilling holes in the chassis for installation, take precautions so as not to contact, damage or obstruct pipes, fuel lines, tanks or electrical wiring. Failure to take such precautions may result in fire.

DO NOT USE BOLTS OR NUTS IN THE BRAKE OR STEERING SYSTEMS TO MAKE GROUND CONNECTIONS.Bolts or nuts used for the brake or steering systems (or any other safety-related system), or tanks should NEVER be used for installations or ground connections. Using such parts could disable control of the vehicle and cause fire etc.

KEEP SMALL OBJECTS SUCH AS BOLTS OR SCREWS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.Swallowing them may result in serious injury. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WHICH MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION, SUCH AS THE STEERING WHEEL OR GEARSHIFT.Doing so may obstruct forward vision or hamper movement etc. and results in serious accident.

CautionHAVE THE WIRING AND INSTALLATION DONE BY EXPERTS.The wiring and installation of this unit requires special technical skill and experience. To ensure safety, always contact the dealer where you purchased this product to have the work done.

USE SPECIFIED ACCESSORY PARTS AND INSTALL THEM SECURELY.Be sure to use only the specified accessory parts. Use of other than designated parts may damage this unit internally or may not securely install the unit in place. This may cause parts to become loose resulting in hazards or product failure.

ARRANGE THE WIRING SO IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY A SHARP METAL EDGE.Route the cables and wiring away from moving parts (like the seat rails) or sharp or pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If wiring passes through a hole in metal, use a rubber grommet to prevent the wires insulation from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.

DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS WITH HIGH MOISTURE OR DUST.Avoid installing the unit in locations with high incidence of moisture or dust. Moisture or dust that penetrates into this unit may result in product failure.

Precautions• Be sure to disconnect the cable from the (–) battery post before

installing your VPA-B222R. This will reduce any chance of damage to the unit in case of a short-circuit.

• Be sure to connect the colour coded leads according to the diagram. Incorrect connections may cause the unit to malfunction or damage to the vehicle’s electrical system.

• When making connections to the vehicle’s electrical system, be aware of the factory installed components (e.g. on-board computer). Do not tap into these leads to provide power for this unit. When connecting the VPA-B222R to the fuse box, make sure the fuse for the intended circuit of the VPA-B222R has the appropriate amperage. Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit and/or the vehicle. When in doubt, consult your Alpine dealer.

• The VPA-B222R uses female RCA-type jacks for connection to other units (e.g. amplifier) having RCA connectors. You may need an adaptor to connect other units. If so, please contact your authorized Alpine dealer for assistance.

• Be sure to connect the speaker (–) leads to the speaker (–) terminal. Never connect left and right channel speaker cables to each other or to the vehicle body.

L Ergänzung zu „Im Problemfall“ in der Bedienungsanleitung (Seite 46): Einstellungen und Bedienung fürFACTORY SYSTEM (Lautsprechereingang).

Der Klang des Lautsprechers ist verzerrt.• Das Werksystem wurde bereits eingestellt.

- Wenn die Werksystem-Einstellfunktionen BASS, TREBLE, LOUDNESS usw. im Lautsprechereingangsmodus geändert werden,verzerrt der Klang des Werksystems leicht. Setzen Sie die obigen Einstellungen daher wieder zurück.

• Die Lautstärke ist nicht gut eingestellt.- Stellen Sie den Lautstärkepegel des Lautsprechereingangs (FACT SYS LV) auf einen kleineren Wert als 15 ein. Vermindern Sie

danach die Werksystem-Lautstärke des Fahrzeugs, so dass der Klang nicht mehr verzerrt ist. Siehe „Anzeigen desLautsprechereingangspegels“ (Seite 16).

Störung.• Lautsprechereingangskabelrauschen kann eine Störung verursachen.

- Verlegen Sie die Lautsprechereingangskabel e und d gebündelt. Ein separates Verlegen der Lautsprechereingangskabel kannRauschen verursachen.

Die Lautstärke der Autostereoanlage ist zu hoch/niedrig.• Die Lautstärke ist nicht gut eingestellt.

- Wählen Sie FACTORY SYS auf der Quellenauswahlanzeige, und stellen Sie die Lautstärke mit dem Commander passend ein.

Unterbrechung arbeitet nicht einwandfrei.• Der Lautsprechereingang wurde nicht richtig auf die Erkennung des Werksystems eingestellt.

- Vergewissern Sie sich, dass das Lautsprecherkabel des Werksystems im Fahrzeug korrekt angeschlossen ist. Prüfen Sie, ob der zurEinstellung des Erkennungskanals (F.SYS INT CH.) passende Eingang gewählt wurde. Siehe „Einstellen des Kanals für dasSprachsignal-Unterbrechungssignal“ (Seite 17).

• Die Unterbrechungslautstärke des Werksystems im Fahrzeug ist zu niedrig.- 1) Wenn ein externer Klangprozessor angeschlossen ist, stellen Sie das GUIDE-Sprachsigal auf 15 ein. Siehe „Einstellen der

Lautstärke des GUIDE-Sprachsignals“ (Seite 12).- 2) Stellen Sie, während das Werksystem eine Navigationsansage oder Telefonsignal wiedergibt, den Lautstärkepegel des
